The magic of world-traveling deceptionist Richard Hatch, Rosemary Kimura (violin) and Jonathan Hatch (piano) with an exquisite menu from the Bluebird Restaurant will make this a night to remember.
Although Richard Hatch holds two graduate degrees in Physics from Yale University, he finds it easier apparently to violate the laws of nature than to discover them. He has been performing his unique brand of magic full time since 1983. In 1985, shortly after winning first place in the annual New England Close Up Competition in Worcester, Massachusetts, Richard moved with his wife, violinist Rosemary Kimura, to Houston, Texas where they were based until moving to Richard’s hometown of Logan, Utah this Fall. For several years he honed his craft entertaining the guests as one of the house magicians at Houston’s Magic Island Nightclub before devoting himself exclusively to private and corporate work, traveling internationally on behalf of his clients.
On January 22, 2011, he and his wife will open the Hatch Academy of Magic and Music* in the 1878 Thatcher-Young Mansion in Logan, Utah. Hatch is a member of the Academy of Magical Arts, the International Brotherhood of Magicians, and is a lifetime member of the Society of American Magicians. Among magicians he is known as the translator from German into English of works about Johann Nepomuk Hofzinser (1806 – 1875), Paul Potassy, and the first four volumes of Roberto Giobbi’s acclaimed “Card College” course of card manipulation. This past year he was a featured performer at the exhibit “Magic: The Science of Wonder” at the Houston Museum of Natural Science. Samples of his sleight of hand work as featured at the Museum may be viewed at http://vimeo.com/9353935.
*The Hatch Academy of Magic & Music is an educational institution offering private and group instruction in sleight-of-hand and violin performance. Conceived as a combination of Hogwarts and Juilliard, the Hatch Academy opens January 22, 2011 in Logan’s historic 1878 Thatcher-Young Mansion, offering private and group lessons in sleight of hand and violin playing. The instructor/founders are deceptionist Richard Hatch and violinist Rosemary Kimura Hatch. For information on the Hatch Academy of Magic and Music, see http://www.hatchacademy.com
